Hey yes I checked out SportsTab thats pretty cool, but it's too bad I can't receive breaking news from other leagues like NBA and NFL. Thats probably why I'll still want ESPN Alerts or if they decide to integrate ESPN Alerts with ESPN Scorecenter I hope they also include Breaking News into the Notifications that you can receive.

I'm sure when the NFL season starts, SportsTap will add that into push. Probably be limited to games though. Too bad you can't have a push notification for a player. Imagine a Fantasy Football app with push!

This is cool, but I've found push apps to dramatically drain my battery life. I thought I'd give this one a try to see if it drains the battery as much as the other ones I tried and it does. Hopefully Apple can fix this with 3.1.

That sort of alert would require a human to create it. Lots of humans. I think Sportstap does it fine with simple score updates. I'm sure they will add more support for other leagues as it becomes more popular.

Although, honestly, score updates for basketball would be prohibitively annoying.
